Wasn't my ideal choice, or second, or third etc.. but honestly don't think it is nearly as Bad as people are acting.

Good luck to the crazy bearded fucker. Let's give him at least the benefit of a few games before we write him off.
Just glad we have a manager at this stage.

Honestly don't think Kanes future was ever going to be determined by our managerial appointment either way. It will be whether levy decides he has got a big enough offer.

I've just been pretty angry with this club as of late, so it's hard for me to call it a fantastic club. But I'm sure in a few weeks I will be feeling different.
Forget the people currently involved in it's running. I am talking about Tottenham Hotspur FC which is and will always be a 'fantastic club' regardless of individuals. Now cheer up, look to the future with hope and belief and delete your disagree (y) (y)

At last I can kiss the Next Manager thread goodbye....It was all a bit hairy for a while, but once the field had been trimmed down it was just a question of making a final decision before pre-season without getting into a lather. That proved to be a close shave, but lets hope Nuno is the best man a team can get.

After getting to 4,000 pages in the build up, what are the chances this doesn’t make it to 10?

I would rather have Mason in charge for as long as it’d take to get a proper manager in. Super disappointing and shows a big lack of ambition.

I’ll back the team of course but it does feel like we’re regressing in just about every area.

Not sure about the Mason bit, the rest I agree with!!

Utter underwhelming appointment.

In Paratici’s time at Juve, he bought a grand total of 3 clients of Mendes…stop perpetuating the myth
Im talking about Nuno here, Who was Mendes’ first ever client after all, and all the Mendes players that were brought to Wolves post 2017.
Jota, Rui Pat, Neto, Jimenez, moutinho, neves, podence, Fabio silva. …..
All Gestifute.
As you mentioned Paratici, the fact his first managerial target was Fonseca and he immediately jumped to Nuno is also massively telling.
Hardly a myth!
let’s not pretend Mendes will not have a massive influence over Spurs in the coming years.

And let's be brutally honest, his ambitions are bigger than the clubs!

Deflating in a word.

Nice guy and I obviously hope he does well but really We have simply employed a Yes man that we serve Levy and Mendes.
It's much easier for a player to fulfill his ambitions by joining a 'guaranteed-to-win-a-trophy-team' like City. (Glory hunter is what we used to call it). Much more difficult for a club to achieve this with all its moving parts and money involved.

“A proper manager”.

Nuno may not have been your first choice - he wasn’t most people’s first choice - but he took Wolves from the championship and made them solid top half finishers.

And before someone bores us all talking about money, don’t.

A large portion of his Wolves squad are players he brought up from the championship and made them into serious PL players, some of whom have since moved to bigger clubs.

He also took Rio Ave - literal nobodies - to two cup finals in one season and into the Europa League for the only time in their history.

His CV doesn’t compare to Conte’s, or even Jose’s, but he is objectively the very definition of a “proper manager”.

Anyone who’s writing him off before he’s even begun can fuck all the way off, quite frankly. The guy deserves a chance, and there is ZERO excuse for any of our fans to not be behind him at this stage. Zero.

Wolf's owners own Gestifute.
Mendes owns Nuno as much as he owns him.
